The M1 MacBook Air took the world by storm a little over three years ago and, needless to say, it has left an indellible mark on both the industry and on the lives of those who’ve been using it as their daily driver.

Despite its slim chassis, the Air is still an incredible performer, and that holds true for both regular, office-type tasks as much as it does for surprisingly demanding creative projects.

If you’re a content creator, a student, a designer or videographer, the M1 MacBook Air still offers the best price-to-performance ratio; just make sure to spec it out with 16GB of Unified Memory — that is essentially the bare minimum, especially in 2024.

I first sat down in front of a Pentium II in 1999 and it feels like I’ve been sitting in front of a computer ever since.

And, well, until mankind comes up with something better and more entertaining, that’ll keep being the case.
